Sultan Rashad McCullough (born February 12, 1980) is an American former professional football running back who played in the National Football League (NFL) for the Washington Redskins and in the Canadian Football League (CFL) for the Montreal Alouettes.

During his college career, McCullough was a standout in both football and track, winning the 1999 Pac-10 championship in the 100 meter dash. He is widely regarded as the fastest player in USC Trojans history.[1] His brother Saladin McCullough also played professional football.[2]
